“!?”
Whether Ilmok and Gu Yangmun were surprised or not, Jin Ha Yeon sat cross-legged and started to eat breakfast.
To control the yin energy of the minority demons that began to boil over due to rapid emotional changes.
The sudden emotional change that led to the coin possession was anger.
He had done this to himself because of a light emotion called love. He felt as if all the efforts he had made were buried in his appearance. He even felt humiliated.
In the midst of all this, you can even abandon Sega for your own sake?
As a member of the Five Great Clans that lead the Demonic Cult, it was extremely pitiful that he had no intention of saving the poor living beings.
That’s why the fragments of emotions that were frozen deep inside rose up.
Since she had not yet entered the extreme of the Soo-Ma-Gong, she could not completely eliminate her emotions. She simply buried them deep inside and froze them with the Soo-Ma-Gong’s cold energy.
Because those emotions were so strong, it was difficult to bury them and freeze them again.
Jin Ha-yeon, who had been trying to control her emotions and feelings, realized this fact and made a decision.
Instead of burying and freezing, let’s dig it out.
Gather together the fragments of seething emotions.
Feelings of envy and jealousy towards Guyangmun that have been building up since the days of the Magic Academy. Even the small fragments of camaraderie that have developed over the years.
Add to that the current boiling sense of contempt and disgust for Guyangmun.
All the emotions were gathered together and wrapped in the cold air of Soo-Ma-Gong.
However, because it was so large, it was not suitable for sending through the blood vessel.
So she pushed the huge mass in a different direction than the blood vessel.
“Coolook.”
She vomited out a handful of rotten blood from her mouth and looked inside again.
Perhaps it was because the emotions she had felt towards the catastrophe that had been the most intense had disappeared. Her insides had regained some stability.
What particularly caught my eye was the feeling towards Ilmok.
‘When did this happen…?’
Compared to her faith in Cheonma and Shingyo, which were the biggest pillars supporting her, or her feelings for Guyangmun that she had just revealed, it was insignificant, but now she boasted of being second only to her parents in terms of stature.
Considering that it’s only been half a year since we started together, it’s quite a large size.
She wanted to look into what exactly that feeling was, but she had to quickly gather her inner strength.
Because the coin offering isn’t over yet.
As Jin Ha-yeon opened her eyes, barely able to control her running wild internal energy, a cold white energy rushed through her eyes, but in an instant, the energy was quenched.
Thanks to spitting out a huge lump of emotions along with rotten blood, she was able to escape from the possession of the main character and at the same time successfully overcome the wall of the minority magic that had been blocking her.
The first thing that caught her eye as the land rose steeply was the landscape of the manor ruined by water and ice.
It was the result of the negative energy flowing out of her body that was obsessed with money.
And in the midst of all that chaos, the figures of Guyangmun and Ilmok, who were standing guard, appeared before her eyes.
“Hayeon!”
“Miss Jin. Are you okay?!”
There was no emotion left in her gaze as she looked at Gu Yang-moon, who was looking at her with concern.
She stood up from her cross-legged position and spoke to Guyangmun.
“Thank you. Thanks to you, I have no feelings for you anymore.”
With those words, she turned around and went into her quarters, closing the door behind her.
In the midst of the cold wind blowing, Goo Yang-moon stood there awkwardly, then turned around and spoke.
“… What should I do now, Confucius?”
“… Thank you, right? For now, isn’t that enough?”
“Is that so?”
Of course not, but it was a scene where I couldn’t bring myself to tell the truth.
Because I didn’t want to see the coin purse twice in one day.

The next morning.
Jin Ha-yeon was conducting class with her usual, emotionless attitude as if nothing had happened last night.
Because of that, I feel like I’m going to die from discomfort.
Finally, I couldn’t hold it in any longer and opened my mouth first.
“Ahem. I’m sorry about last night.”
“I don’t care at all, so it’s okay.”
Her answer, which showed no emotion whatsoever, sounded more frightening than a reprimand.
“Ahem. Since we are living together, I thought I could ease the tension between us a little bit, so I told Guyang Sohyeop. I told him not to try to help Miss Jin for no reason, and to just watch.”
I tried hard to clear up her misunderstanding by talking hard.
Honestly, I didn’t feel any resentment.
I told Gu Yangmun clearly. Jin Ha Yeon’s feelings were not good, so he should keep his distance and not act awkwardly for a while.
I never expected that that crazy guy would misunderstand those words and launch a confession attack.
“No matter what the circumstances, I am truly fine, Your Majesty.”
As expected, Jin Ha-yeon maintained a cold attitude and added.
“I have no feelings left for Gu Yang Moon anymore. Thanks to him, I have reached this level, so why would I be angry?”
“Oh, that’s right.”
I couldn’t tell if he had become cold because he had reached a higher level of maturity or if he had become cold because he was holding back his anger.
However, only this one thing has become certain.
‘Yangmun-ah. You really seem to be wrong.’
In love, what is scarier than ill feelings is apathy.
However, I did not feel any sympathy for Guyangmun.
Even if it was a misunderstanding at first, it was Guyangmun himself who put the nail in the coffin in the end.

That afternoon.
The teacher, who came to teach as usual, glanced at Jin Ha-yeon and said.
“Wow. You’ve grown to a level where it’s no exaggeration to call yourself a remarkable person overnight.”
As expected of a master who had reached a great level, he recognized Jin Ha-yeon’s accomplishments at a glance.
And to the teacher’s praise, Jin Ha-yeon responded humbly and with the utmost courtesy.
“It’s all thanks to ‘Ilmok Confucius’ and ‘Guyangmun’, Your Majesty.”
The moment my name was called from her lips, I couldn’t help but flinch.
‘No matter how I look at it, it looks like he’s angry… .’
What I said this morning definitely felt like a lie.
Even Goo Yang-moon, who was unusually pessimistic today, felt a bit uneasy.
The teacher, who did not know the details, looked at me and muttered, “Huh.”
“Hehehe. After Jinhak and Wanpyeong, now even Hayeon. It seems like everyone who works with you is on a steep rise in achievement.”
“Ha. Hahaha. That, that was just a coincidence.”
It wasn’t humility.
I was so scared of Jin Ha-yeon’s gaze that I couldn’t even bring myself to brag about it.
Fortunately, the congratulations for Jin Ha-yeon did not last long.
“We don’t have much time, so let’s start practicing now.”
The teacher who said that drew his sword again today without hesitation. He sent a tremendous force at me.
After that, I was treated like a dog just like last time.
“Ugh. Ugh.”
For a long time, I was rolled around while exposed to the intense magic and murderous energy that made the hair on my entire body stand on end.
A thought occurred to me.
‘… Aren’t you taking out all the stress from being a cult leader on me?’
“What are you thinking so deeply about?”
“It’s nothing, Master!”
One glance was an incredible inspiration.
Eventually, after an hour of close combat, I was left sprawled on the floor, breathing heavily.
“Ugh. Ugh.”
The neat-looking teacher, who, unlike me, had not shed a single drop of sweat, looked down at me rolling on the floor and spoke.
“After you finish your bathing ritual, come to Cheonmajeon. I have something to talk about.”
“Yes, I will obey your command. Heuk.”
After the teacher left, I was immediately given a bath and interrogated by Jin Ha-yeon.
“Miss Jin? You seem colder than usual…?”
“I’m sorry. I suddenly went to a higher level, and I think I lost control of my strength.”
“Oh, that’s right.”
I had a feeling that wasn’t the case, but I couldn’t bring myself to argue.
After finishing the investigation and bloodletting, I prepared myself and headed to Cheonma Hall.
Jin Ha-yeon, under the escort of Guyangmun.
“… … .”
“… … .”
It was a terrible walk, filled only with silence.
Jin Ha-yeon was coldly watching her surroundings, and Gu Yang-moon, who was usually talkative, would often open his mouth and then close it as he watched Jin Ha-yeon’s reaction.
The appearance was very similar to that of a puppy abandoned by its owner on a rainy day.
‘Come to think of it, Goo Yang Moon is a puppy. A loyal and active but somewhat stupid dog? Hmm. Then is Jin Ha Yeon a feline? A prickly and proud cat?’
As I walked along, thinking of such trivial thoughts, I soon arrived at Cheonmajeon.
After entering the building under the escort and guidance of the warriors guarding the entrance to Cheonmajeon, I arrived at the Master’s quarters, which I was now familiar with.
“Come in quickly. I thought you might not have had dinner yet because you came in a hurry, so I have prepared a table for you. Let’s chat while we eat.”
At the teacher’s welcoming words, I sighed inwardly.
‘You’re going to talk about work while eating again, right?’
A meal where you can’t tell if the food is going into your nose or your mouth because it’s so full.
I felt like I had to grab a late-night snack from the tea house today.
“Do you want to sit down?”
“Yes, Master.”
As soon as I sat down, the teacher got to the main point.
“I called you here because of the new medical facility you mentioned a few days ago. Before you enter the Magic Hall, I want you to take charge of organizing the place.”
This crazy old man was trying to force all this work onto me.
“… There is less than half a year left until the entrance examination for the Magic Academy, Master. I am concerned that there may be a problem with the entrance examination for the Magic Academy.”
But the teacher answered my question confidently.
“You don’t have to worry about that.”
Could it be that the leader is just trying to get me into the magic hall using his authority?
Such expectations arose, but they were far-fetched.
“Didn’t your realm grow explosively because of this attack? After that, you fainted and your enlightenment became hazy, but if you can solidify that enlightenment in the remaining time, you will be able to enter the court without a hitch.”
“Well, is it possible that you might neglect your training while preparing a new medicine and not be able to achieve enlightenment?”
“Hahahaha. What are you worried about when you have this old man? Until you make that enlightenment your own, I will do my best to teach you.”
He said that he would treat me like a dog just like today, or even worse than today if I messed up.
Your skills aren’t improving?
Then, he would definitely apply more powerful magic and pressure, and if that didn’t work, he would stab her with a real sword and roll her around.
And in a demonic sect that worships nothing, that could be considered an act of great grace.
‘Fucking phony.’
He cursed inwardly, but responded with a look of emotion on his face.
“I don’t know what to do with myself because of your grace.”
“Hahahaha. It’s something I should do as a teacher, so don’t mind it. Oh, I think I’ve talked too long. Eat comfortably.”
The teacher, smiling gently, offered me food, so I picked up a piece of meat with my chopsticks and put it in my mouth.
And as I was chewing my food, the Master said,
“First of all, I have instructed the followers to collect and research medical books and folk remedies, but it will inevitably take a long time. So, I think it would be best to start preparing for the consultation first.”
Eat some food!!!
I quickly chewed and swallowed the meat in my mouth and answered.
“If so, as I told you last time, can I tell the members about the conversation I had with Ambassador and Samsahyung?”
“In addition, I want to tell the council members about Ha-yeon. The council members who will work in the new medical office have been selected, so I will introduce them to you tomorrow.”
After that, we had to talk about the psychiatric ward for a long time, eating and drinking.
It suddenly occurred to me that I needed a digestive aid, not a midnight snack.
* * *
After a meal and meeting that lasted nearly an hour, Ilmok left.
“Eunwigak Iljojang meets the master of Manma.”
A woman dressed in black nightgown appeared through the darkness.
“Were there any special signs?”
“There has been no suspicious activity so far.”
Ilmok, Gu Yangmun, and Jin Hayeon didn’t notice at all, but in fact, she had moved with them from Pungamjeon to here.
If you think about it, it was somewhat strange.
For Ilmok, who had been attacked twice, the only people he had as escorts were Jin Ha-yeon and Guyang-mun.
In fact, those two were only the superficial escorts. Cheonma had given orders to Eunwigak to appoint several hidden escorts.
In other words, Cheonma was using Ilmok as a kind of bait.
After going through such things, Cheonma was not a person so sloppy as to let his guard down just because a single cult leader committed suicide.
